I had a dream last night that I had to go this combination airport waiting lounge/long-term baggage storage place to get my suitcase, and it was full of Iraqis, only I didn't know if they were leaving Iraq or going back. My suitcase was mostly empty except for a single pair of jeans and a shirt, which I took out, as well as a CD player and headphones, and a camera + extra roll of film.

That is, just to clarify, the lounge was full of Iraqis, not my suitcase.
Latter on I dreamt that my father woke me up, standing worryingly close to my bed; he was completely in shadow, and for some reason I felt that he was, in fact, John Rhys-Davies, even though I knew he was not. Then I woke up and it was 3:30 in the morning, and I have been awake since then.

Using the words "iraquis" and "airport" in the same post has probably been noted by Der Homeland Sekurity Dept.
TOday I installed blinds on the windows of my new apartment: ir was a bit too exposed before: I woke up thursday night and went into the kitchen for water when I realised that I was nude and the exposed windows face the parking lot (I'm on the ground level).
Luckily it was the middle of the night and I'd kept the lights out.
Kinda voyueristic though.
Hopefully I'll get a chance to assemble my computer tomorrow.

I replaced a showerhead this morning. My life is as interesting as a thousand dying goldfish.

So if one of us types "I('m) (involved in/know of) a terrorist attack" will they'll come and pack us into cattle-trucks and send us off to deepest Siberia finally releasing our descendants decades later who'll find their homelands population by Russian colonists?
That'd be highly amusing for others to watch I'm sure.

- Sol - Maybe Der Homeland Security Dept. are inserting nightmarish images into your dreams as punishment for thinking about Iraqis.

Well see this is interesting, they normally outfit themselves in that fashion to look presentable and cordial to the human they're visisting. If the jar didn't have any accessories, that means the situation forced it to do an emergency fold to reach you, leaving no time for niceties. ... This doesn't add up. Cloudberry jams pride themselves in their toughness and resolve, what could possibly scare one of them enough to leave the ribbon and spoon back at the base? I fear something big is going to happen in Australia.

That sounds like the strategy my brother used for Thailand last summer. He didn't bring any clothes except for what he was wearing, he just bought whatever he needed down there. Maybe you need to take a break, get some new experiences. I really need to get a break from Sweden, what with the fucking sleet and all. I may be projecting.

So Irwin would dangle his baby in front of a dangerous Republican?
Viewers would cheer for the US diplomat (particularly if it meant bodily injury to Steve Irwin)....even the french!

1.) I would really like to go to Scandinavia, as it turns out.
2.)

In which case I guess I dodged a bullet.
3.) was going to be a link to a story about how the government finally ditched Carnivore after it became apparent that, as designed, it was totally unworkable, but then I realized I was getting my shadowy intelligence ops confused.
